On Thursday, November 6, 2025, Daddy Lumba's first wife, Akosua Serwaa, and his elder sister, Ernestina Fosu, issued a press statement to warn Roman Fada for sharing unauthorised information about the late highlife singer's funeral.

They warned him to desist from spreading false information and sending out funeral invitations that do not come from the family.

In the statement, they accused Roman Fada of parading himself in public as the late Daddy Lumba's manager, a role they claimed he was officially relieved of by the singer before his death.
